A split-level residence is divided either front to rear or side to side and has three levels of finished living area: lower level, intermediate level and upper level. The lower level is immediately below the upper level as in a two-story residence. The intermediate level, adjacent to the other levels, is built on a grade approximately one-half story higher than the lower level. This type of residence has a split-roof design, and is also called a tri-level. This style is available for single-family residences and town houses only.
